1914 Cracker Jacks - CSI Style!
1914 Cracker Jacks are no stranger to alterations and fakes. And with their increase in interest this year, we will likely see even more fakes/alterations on the market. I pulled this guide together to create increased awareness for all 14 CJ collectors.
I encourage anyone that sees a mistake to reply so it can be corrected for the community. Please also reply if you are aware of any omissions! I would like to thank all contributors to the alteration and forgery/reprint section of Net54, which helped me write this. Thanks also to those that made contributions to 1914 CJ forgery awareness in the Net54 archive. Required tools to identify fakes/alterations

Good stuff, Erich!
I've heard about cases where the 17 was being removed from the Bresnahan card to make it look like the no number variety. How should people watch for that alteration? |

Also, we may not see a spike in 17 being removed in the future. This is because many more no numbers have been identified recently so it is not valued as highly as it once was. |

Good to know, Erich - thanks for your thoughts!
Bummer about the 'no number' variety not having quite as much of a premium any more; I've had mine for a while and hoped it would prove to stay a tough variety! |
